rosnik Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Hi IWC-er, I'm planning to buy one Portuguese with Asian 7750 automatic. Rumors seed that this movement is a but unstable. Do you know if can I replace with GEN 7750? Thank you Nico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosnik Posted November 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 OOOOPPPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! sorry for my post!! I find the replay here: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showto...p;hl=Portuguese It's not possible to change with Swiss 7750 because Portuguese has running seconds at 6 o'clock. Swiss 7750 has running seconds at 9 o'clock. Please get me advice if buy Portuguese or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleobis Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 I would love to say yes,but everywhere I read people say it WILL fail sooner or later which is a shame as it is a watch that I love and just waiting for any news regarding the movement so that I can buy one....please, someone come up with a solution to this movement as I'm sure the guy who does it will have a LOT of business increase because I think there is a lot of people not buying this rep due to its movement prblms...

szvwj Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Have you read this 'possible' solution? http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=67644&hl= I, too, want an IWC Portuguese, but I don't want a watch that's prone to failure. If this really works, I may pick one up. A little Graphite, some AR on the Crystal (maybe a date wheel swap) and I'd have a pretty sweet watch.
